Karachi:
Artificial intelligence is the new fashionable word in today’s technological world. He quickly changes the world we have known so far. Last week, the Indian army introduced its four -legged robots on AI, which were proudly presented as part of its army day parade in Pune City. Called mules (multiple leg equipment) and designed to look like dogs, these “canines AI” will be used for surveillance as well as to transport light loads.
In Karachi, university students unveiled a robot vehicle fueled by AI designed to improve Pakistan’s defense capacities.
Equipped with an advanced laser pistol capable of encouraging targets in seconds, this new generation system promises to revolutionize military operations while minimizing costs and victims.
The Robo-Vehicle vehicle powered by AI, currently in prototype form, has been developed to minimize victims among security personnel by offering a safer and more effective alternative to traditional combat methods.
Its ability to distinguish between friendly forces and enemy forces, as well as its precise targeting of mobile and stationary targets – on earth and in air – shows impressive accuracy and efficiency.
The developers of the Robo-Vehicle, students of the University of Mehran of Engineering and Technology, Shaheed Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto Campus in Khairpur, proudly presented their product during the 4th Research and Technology Showcase at Karachi Expo Center, where he captured everyone’s attention, including the Sindh chief minister, who appreciated the project as a leap forward in defense technology.
Four developed countries – Israel, the United States, the United Kingdom and South Korea – have already incorporated similar technology into their defense systems, and if they were implemented, Pakistan would become the first country in the world Islamic to deploy such technology, positioning it as the 5th nation on a global scale to do so.
Syed Owais Ahmed, a student from the Muet electronics department on the Khairpur campus, explained that the prototype robot laser pistol offers an alternative to conventional ballistic weapons. One of the main advantages of this system is its ability to draw laser beams at the speed of light, eliminating the need for traditional ammunition. Powered by a hybrid electrical configuration, the system guarantees an unlimited supply of “ammunition”, which makes it very reliable in combat situations. In addition, this innovation could reduce the risk of victims by allowing the remote control of the system from a safe work station.
The prototype is equipped with high -tech characteristics, including cameras, infrared sensors and a range of objectives to improve its targeting capacities. Currently, the system may target objects up to six feet distance, but the beach can be extended with additional modules. This could potentially allow the system to deactivate enemy missiles in the air during an air strike.
Students and teachers behind this project are impatient to contribute their expertise to strengthen the country’s defense capacities. Beyond the increased security offer, this technology could reduce defense expenses by reducing dependence on conventional ammunition and staff in dangerous combat situations. This technological marvel – formerly considered to be the field of science fiction – now testifies to the ingenuity and the determination of the brightest minds of the Sindh.
